How does FreightLogs reduce manual effort?

Paper documents must be distributed, checked, scanned, processed, and archived. FreightLogs digitally captures, processes, and archives transport data and documents for the long term.

  • Less administrative effort in dispatch and back office
  • No illegible scans or missing documents
  • Easier document distribution and tracking

When speed makes the difference

Digital proof of delivery is available immediately after the shipment is completed. This allows downstream processes such as document verification, customer notification, and invoicing to begin sooner.

  • Faster availability of signed transport documents
  • Automatic transfer of status and document data
  • Earlier invoicing and shorter billing cycles

What makes eCMR more transparent than paper CMR?

All relevant transport steps are documented digitally. Status updates, timestamps, signatures, comments, and supporting documents are traceable and centrally available at all times.

  • Current transport status can be viewed at any time
  • Changes and events are available in real time
  • Complete and standardized transport documentation
  • All parties have access to the same information

Compliance and future readiness

Audit-proof documentation and archiving

All changes and process steps to the eCMR are recorded through a continuous audit trail, ensuring full traceability and audit-ready archiving.

OLF - Actively shaping standards

As a member of the Open Logistics Foundation, EDITEL actively contributes to industry standards and incorporates emerging technical and regulatory developments into the ongoing development of FreightLogs.

Legally compliant documentation in the transport process

Status changes, delivery confirmations and documents are always fully and transparently available – for greater security in the case of complaints and liability issues.

Prepared for future eFTI requirements

The FreightLogs architecture is designed with future eFTI requirements in mind. Functionalities and electronic communication with authorities are being implemented progressively in line with regulatory developments.

The next step in the digitization of transport documents

Across Europe, transport documentation is increasingly moving towards digital processes. Regulations such as the Spanish DCA demonstrate the growing importance of digital document availability, archiving, and process reliability.

FreightLogs reduces your reliance on paper-based documents and lays the foundation for modern, digitally networked transport processes.

How FreightLogs supports your transport workflow

See how your transport data, driver access, execution updates, and document follow-up can be handled in one digital flow.

  • Create the eCMR: Transport data is transferred from your existing TMS or ERP setup, with supporting documents added where needed.
  • Invite drivers and partners: Drivers receive SMS access, while partners can join via system integration or simple digital access.
  • Confirm loading digitally: Data is checked at the loading point and handover is confirmed with a digital signature.
  • Track transport in real time: Status updates, comments, photos, and incident details are captured directly during execution.
  • Complete delivery and archive automatically: Receipt is confirmed digitally, connected systems are updated, and the eCMR is stored for long-term access.
